President Xi Jinping said that China is willing to advance high-quality Belt and Road cooperation with Mozambique and other African countries, and assist in their efforts to accelerate modernization when meeting with Mozambican Prime Minister Adriano Maleiane in Beijing on Thursday.

Xi also said that China is committed to implementing the three proposals that have been launched to enhance China-Africa practical cooperation such as the Initiative on Supporting Africa's Industrialization and sharing development opportunities and benefits with African countries.

Describing China and Mozambique as true friends and true brothers that stand together through thick and thin, Xi said he is glad to see that fruitful results have been achieved in their Belt and Road cooperation.

China is willing to deepen its traditional friendship with Mozambique and continuously push for new progress in developing the China-Mozambique comprehensive strategic partnership, the president said.

Xi said China supports the African country in safeguarding national sovereignty, security and development interests as well as in pursuing a development path that suits its own national conditions.

He called on the two sides to deepen cooperation in areas such as energy and agriculture, and promote educational, cultural, local-level and people-to-people exchanges.

The president also expressed China's willingness to strengthen communication with Mozambique on multilateral platforms such as the United Nations and promote the implementation of the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative and the Global Civilization Initiative.

Maleiane said the series of important initiatives including the Belt and Road Initiative proposed by China can help other countries eradicate poverty, promote economic growth and improve people's livelihoods.

Mozambique firmly adheres to the one-China policy, and hopes to learn from China's experience in modernization to better achieve its own development, he said, adding that his country wishes to deepen practical cooperation with China in all fields.
